now, if janet napolitano says, steve king, i've got $8.25 million for you this year and i want you to achieve more efficiency and security along your west mile than we've had before, would i hire a group of border patrol agents to stand there and buy humvees and put on uniforms and buy their arms and set up the health care plan and the retirement plan and take that perpetual liability for the balance of their lives for the purpose of guarding that mile? some of it i would, mr. speaker. some of it i would. some of it i would put an infrastructure in place. i would build a fence or wall across the areas where people are crossing and i have no advocated we build 2,000 miles of fence on our southern border but i have consistently advocate it that we build it until -- keep extending our fence at the most illegally crossed places until such time as they stop going around the end. and if it happens, they don't stop going around the end, then ultimately we would end up of 2,000, a fence, wall and a fence on the southern border. if it gets too expensive or too difficult, no, mr. speaker, it's
